fired from my job? help?
i worked at planet fitness..this past friday my manager taped a letter on to the counter saying that they will be taking $10 out of everyone's paycheck so they can use it to buy a gift for the owners of planet fitness..seeing as how we get paid every two weeks and as a result of the crappy hours my manager gives me, i don't get a whole lot back on my paycheck, so curiously i asked why we were doing that..a coworker jumped in and said with an attitude "because they're the reason you have a job right now" in which my boss agreed and said "you tell him! they write our paychecks so get over it" after hearing this, i wasn't in a very good mood so i when i went home, i noticed on facebook that my cousin left a comment asking for tips on how to get a job. i suggested she apply to my job since i was planning on leaving, she asked why, so i told her the reason..unfortunately one of my coworkers/friends on my friends list told the coworker who rudely snapped at me and that person sent me constant texts chewing me out for not being happy about the deductions..she then proceeded to tell my boss about my discussion with my cousin about the matter..the next day i came in, my boss fired me.
my question, is there any legal matters i can take to rectify this? it's one thing if they were asking for volunteers to donate money to buy a present, but they were forcefully telling us they were taking money out of our account..and it wasn't an emergency or anything..they just wanted to buy a christmas gift for the owners. i personally think the owners are very rude and disrespectful which is why i didn't want money that i worked hard for to be given back to them for paying me to do my job..so is there anything action i can take to bring justice? i called the department of labor and they weren't much help so if there is anything i can do to fix this problem, i would very much appreciate it

I have everything else for the costume done, problem is i can't seem to figure out how i can make the arms. I know paint or aluminum foil are pretty much my only options but what kind of paint could i use to make the arms look good and at the same time be safe? If anyone knows what paint to use and where to find it, i would very much appreciate it. Also could spray paint work too? or maybe aluminum foil?
